I used a 1967 patrol cab and cut it down to make the pickup cab. 69 doors and 69 door jams (I chose 69 because these had the safest latch mechanisms). 65 front fenders. 66 grille. 65 hood. 67 roof that I had to cut down. The bed is all custom built with a Datsun 720 bed floor, tied down hooks, and tailgate latches. I mounted all of this to a 1993 Jeep Wrangler chassis that I lengthened 18.5”. It’s registered as a 1965 Nissan Patrol Pickup. I hope you guys like it!

Great workmanship! Superb vision! What color or colors are you going with, or are you going to stay with hot rod gray?

I did a spring over axle conversion and lifted it another 6” I also installed ARB lockers and 410 gears front and rear! It now has a Dana 44 with disk brakes in the rear! I ordered a 4.7 stroker engine that should produce around 275+HP and 280+FTLBS Torque.
